Katherine Griffiths, Urban Tapestry (URBAN 2025)

At first glance, this picture has the traits of an old film strip with a story printed along the length. But after a moment, the reality of Tak Nga court public housing becomes clear, and with it an incredible sense of perspective. This image captures more than just the stark geometry of Hong Kong apartment blocks - it reveals a mosaic of human existence. A loan bicycle, fluttering laundry, and potted plants tells a silent story of life within confined spaces, painting, a poignant picture of the search for individuality in the towering closeness of urban living.
